pladis granted Royal Warrant for McVitie's and Jacob's brands

McVitie's and Jacob's

Global snacks giant pladis has been granted a new Royal Warrant of Appointment to His Majesty the King, for use in connection with their McVitie’s and Jacob’s biscuits and snacks.

“We’re delighted, especially as our UK brands have a long history of being granted Royal Warrants, since as far back as 1841,” the company said.


“Our royal connections have been a great source of pride to our brands over the years, from the creation of a grand wedding cake for the Duke of York and Princess Mary, to a chocolate biscuit cake for the wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton in 2011 and the gift of a cake for the King’s Coronation.”

Spirits major Diageo has been granted Royal Warrants for five of its brands for the supply of spirits and wines to the Royal Household.

However, Cadbury has not been granted a royal warrant for the first time in 170 years after it got dropped from King Charles’s list of warrants.

Kerry Cavanaugh, general manager at Mars Chocolate Drinks & Treats, says: “The real driver of our multipack performance was the roll out of our new four pack Bounty, Twix and Maltesers ice cream bars, suggesting consumers are increasingly buying ice cream for at home consumption as a dessert or treat, rather than on the go.
